The population of moose will still be around 850 in 30 years.

<h3>What is carring capacity?</h3>

Carrying capacity is the number of individuals that an environment can support without significant negative impacts to the organism and its environment.

With that being said, the moose population size will be same or still 850 after 30 years. Rate of plant growth on isle Royale supported in equilibrium moose population of 850 moose and if there will more 200 mooses arrived then there will be no sufficient plants available to feed those additional mooses. This is the concept of carrying capacity. Carrying capacity is defined as the species average population size in particular habitat. Species population size is restricted by environmental factor like food, shelter, etc. If number of mooses will be increased in particular habitat and plants are limited ,then there will be strong competition between them, which results in survival of the fittest.

So when population size increases on Isle Royale,may be in beginning, for a while there will be sufficient plants to feed those additional 200 mooses, but after some time plant population will reduce and there will be not enough plants to feed all of the mooses. And if needs are not met, population will decreases which allows plants to grow in normal population to feed 850 mooses. So, after 30 years moose population size would be around 850 mooses.

if the job of a cell was to swim a long distance to an egg with a flagella, then it would need more of what organelle?
kicyunya [14]
If a particular job of a cell was to swim a long distance to an egg with a flagella, then it would need more mitochondria. As mitochondria undergo cellular respiration and essentially utilize the carbohydrates for that particular cell to produce the final product of ATP high energy containing molecules needed for the movement.

Which of the following describes the embryonic period
dangina [55]

There should be options for this question. I manged to find them elsewhere. They are:

A) the period during which tremendous growth occurs and the organs continue to develop and become  functional

B) the period during which the umbilical cord develops

C) the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop

D) the period during which the zygote moves down to the uterus and begins to implant in the lining

The correct answer is C. The embryonic period is the period during which the major organs and structures of the organism first develop. The embryonic period lasts from implantation of the egg in the uterus until about 8 weeks from the time of conception. It is the second major stage of prenatal development, prior to embryonic is the germinal stage and lastly is the fetal stage.

The metabolic fate of fatty acids is dependent on two enzymes, carnitine acyltransferase i and acetyl-coa carboxylase. carnitine
zvonat [6]

The correct answer is the last statement.

If the regulatory serine is mutated to alanine, then acetyl-CoA carboxylase will get activated spontaneously and will produce malonyl-CoA. The increased concentrations of malonyl-CoA will obstruct the oxidation of fatty acids by preventing the entry of fatty acids into the mitochondria.

It is because the AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylates the serine residues of acetyl-CoA carboxylase to inactivate it. If a mutation occurs in such residues, then the AMPL cannot phosphorylate acetyl-CoA carboxylase and this enzyme will get activated spontaneously.

In such a situation, there will be more than sufficient production of malonyl-CoA, which will inhibit the admittance of more fatty acid getting inside the mitochondria; this will indirectly prevent the oxidation of fatty acids.
